About Anthony Lynn
Anthony served as the head coach of the Los Angeles Chargers from 2017-2021. He began his career as an undrafted rookie out of college and spent seven seasons in the NFL. When he was with the Denver Broncos, he won two, back-to-back Super Bowl championships. After his playing career ended in 2000, he immediately went into coaching. His career has included being the special teams assistant coach for the Denver Broncos, the running backs coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars, Dallas Cowboys and Cleveland Browns. While he was with the New York Jets, he was assistant head coach. He started With the Buffalo Bills as the offensive coordinator before being promoted to interim head coach for the Buffalo Bills in 2015 and 2016.
Despite a busy and successful career, Anthony was determined to finish his college degree after starting it 26 years prior. In 2018, he received his bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies from the University of Nevada – Las Vegas. He debated not attending the graduation ceremony to walk on the stage and get his diploma, but decided to attend. He thought if his story inspired someone and encouraged players to finish their degrees, it was worth the travel and missing the final two days of rookie mini-camp. Outside of football, Anthony is passionate about his faith and helping others. Make sure you follow The Lynn Family Foundation on Instagram at @lynnfamilyfoundation_.
